I waited a long time before i got my playstation 3. it is a great system, for playing games, watching blue ray movies on it, being able to surf the web, go to the playstation store, to rent games or buy them. rent or buy movies. it comes with a wireless controller. you can get accessories, like a web cam to chat with others as you play games along with them. you can buy a small keyboard that goes on top of your controller.  you can also buy a wireless keyboard (standard size) to help you surf the web even easier.  surfing the web on the playstation 3 isn't like your surfing on your computer....
